« Do not believe that the one who tries to comfort you lives effortlessly among the simple and serene words that sometimes do you good. His life is so sad and sad that leave him far behind. If it were otherwise, he would never have been able to find those words. »

« I realize that I no longer have to fight existence, nor want to become someone. Just be there, without bitterness or bitterness, and be powerfully active. »

Small Treatise on Abandonment: Thoughts to Welcome Life as It Proposes

« The word represents a chain to which existence is linked, the prison in which an individual is locked. The term becomes heavier than the reality it purports to refer to. When my neighbour disappears under the label of depressive, when others appear only as the diabetic, the widower or the black, the reduction to work in many eyes weighs, bruises the personality and opens secret wounds. (...) Yet the very fixity of judgment reduces the richness of reality, of the human being before whom one should at least be surprised, if not dare to marvel. »
